RaptureReady...That is the style I remember!
We had it in the kitchen to plug the bigger coffee pot into when company came over to save counter space!!

My mom always used it!

Wish I could find one for my studio....will have to add that to my "find at second hand store" list!!! ;-)

I don't know exactly how long they have been around. But I think I remember my mom having one and I had one at one time too and that was in the 70s or 80s I think.

Yes, I too had one, all wood grain loking in metal, I don't really remember what I did with it. Really had no room for it. They are quite handy.

Kathy, I have one of these metal carts as well. Except I think mine is from the 30s-40s. It was from my great Uncles house when he passed about 20 years ago. It had red legs with white shelves. I painted it all red. And have all my machine embroider stuff on it. It sits next to my embroidery machine/table for easy access.

I do! We had one of each at home. (I'm dating myself.)

I remember those. I also like the way it is painted now. Hubby did a good job.
